Installation

Fig. 3

Determine the desired location and installation—surface or to a back box.
Remove the two screws from the two tabs that attach the mounting base to the main unit (See Fig. 1).
Squeeze the included base removal tool and insert through the wiring access hole in the back of the unit. Release and pull carefully until the mounting base is removed from the unit.
Remove the base removal tool and turn the mounting base over to view the wiring terminals (see Fig. 2)
Thread the wires (up to 8 wires, depending on installation, see “Sample Applications” on pg. 4) through the center hole in the base and install the base to the wall/back box using the four mounting holes in the base, oriented so that the engraved arrow is pointing up. Be careful not to use the hole for the tamper switch (see Fig. 2).
NOTE: For non-standard boxes, drill out any other holes engraved in the oval indentations on the mounting base as needed.
Connect the wires for the desired installation to the terminals on the mounting base as shown in Fig. 3 and referring to the sample applications on pg. 4. Note that audio input requires power to the P.A. (+) terminal.
Carefully slide the main unit onto the base, ensuring the correct orientation (note the notch and the arrows) and ensuring the terminal plugs are correctly engaged (see Fig. 1).
Attach the main unit to the base using the two screws removed in step 2.
